They should come up with more complicated model names... just To confuse potential buyers
SERIOUSLY the best review I've seen! thank you for being so helpful!!! because of you I can finally make a decision!!! Can't wait to watch other vids!!
Oh good! Glad this was helpful!
Thanks for the comparison! we are trying to step up our broll game for the channel and this really helped us narrow down what we need! Love your style and humor as well!
I came here to learn about gimbals and found myself smiling and laughing the whole way through. Nice work, dude!
AWESOME! That was my intent! Thanks for watching!
Bro you are blowing up with RUclips and the sponsorships and such! Killing the game. I've seen your work progress. keep it up.
hey Sidney, i just ordered the plus, i found your video because i cant stop obsessing about it until it arrives on sunday! Anyway im glad i came across your channel i totally get your humor and now consider myself a new fan! plus, a fellow youtuber in So Cal, how cool is that! Much Love from the Us Out Loud Family!
Soooooo awesome! Let me if you have any questions about the gimbal!
The mix in the middle just traps me in this video!!!!!! That is AMAZING!!!!!!
Just ordered the V2 yesterday before this video came out. Now I feel at ease that i made the right decision. Thanks!
That’s awesome! You’ll love the Crane v2! Thanks for watching!
Funny, good energy, informative and clear. Keep up this good work, had a laugh and now know which gimbal I'm going to choose!
COOL! Thanks for watching and I'm glad this was helpful!
Great review, great quality everything. Thanks for making it easy on which one I think is best for me, btw ima get the plus for simple travel vloggin with a canon 80d and sony rx100
Glad this was helpful! Thanks for watching!!
So helpful! You manage to get straight to the point while still being funny and engaging! LEGEND!
Haha, thanks Leon! And thanks for watching!
Love the footage of downtown Claremont! Thanks for the review, exactly the info I needed!
Awesome! Glad I can help!
I'm here, a year later, and unlike *some* comments I read, I support your passion for cake.
You do you. It's fun, it's exciting, and it's different.
Keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching!
Well, I ordered the Zhiyun Crane Plus and will return it. Why? I realized too late (my fault) that for full function I would require a Panasonic or Sony camera. I need the control panel function of the Gimbal and this is simply not working with Fuji or Nikon (or Canon). Be aware of this before you buy. If you don't need the control panel then this is not an issue.
Your stuff just keeps getting better and better. Very entertaining.
Thank you!!
I love the production quality in your vids! Great stuff
Thanks so much for watching!!
Another great video! I love your work, and I'm always excited when I see you've posted new content! Your shots of Claremont were awesome. If I ever spot you wandering around there, I'll buy you that cake! Haha! Keep it up!
Thanks so much! I'm always down for cake :)
You are an amazing individuality, it's awesome to listen to you and creative changes in your video made it more attractive:) thank you!!!
Thank you so much Ania!!!
Hey, Sidney!
You did a very nice comparison of the products, especially with the selfy mode shots. For a long time I want to test some of them, but I am not exactly sure which one do I actually need for my camera setup. I use Panasonic GH5 with mostly native lenses and I am planing to use it with Sigma 18-35 with metabones adapter. Which one do you think would serve better my needs, because I am really confused and those gimbals are not easy to find in my country?
Also could you help me with some contacts to Zhiyun I could use for requesting a product for review?
Greetings from Bulgaria! :)
For gimbals, the lighter the setup the better. The Sigma 18-35 is pretty heavy, so the only gimbal to handle it is the Crane 2. Otherwise, the native lenses might be a better fit for you
I really like the way you present everything. And oh your subscribers are growing! It was 4k ish when i started to follow you. Kudos!
Thanks so much!! It really means a lot to me. And thanks for following me since 4k!!
Thank you so much for this video! You really cannot believe how confused I was to begin with when it came to all the various models of the Crane ... Thankfully you solved all of that confusion, so yeah, thanks a bunch :)
Its 11pm, I’m still in my office waiting for a video to upload to ze cloud and this gave me a good chuckle. Sub earned! Thank you sir. As a 6d2 user, I’m thinking of going for the CranePlus over the Crane V2 just because I don’t like how close I’d be getting to that 1.8kg max. For me, the Crane2 is overkill - and I dont like the follow focus wheel because I’m left handed and its in the way. Plus, one more thing to go wrong / get damaged. Cheeeeeers
Glad you enjoyed the video!!! Thanks for watching!
@@SidneyDiongzon Whats best for a NON pro, Gopro 8 : Zhiyune Crane M2 VS iSteady Pro2 VS G5 or G6 ready to buy right now...TY !
I ordered the Crane V2 for work about 2 months ago and it did actually come with a mini tripod to put on the bottom! I was pleasantly surprised.
Will welch same here! I’ve been digging the v2 but thinking about upgrading to the plus or maybe the Crane 2. We’ll see! Swing by, I try to post vids weekly!
Really!!??? I missed out for sure!
The Crane Plus is basically a stronger version of the Crane v2. I think Zhiyun wanted to market those line of gimbals differently than the original Crane series.
Sidney Diongzon For sure! The tripod that comes with the V2 is a bit cheaper though. Feels like it could hold less weight. Which makes complete sense seeing how the V2 has a lighter max payload.
Mine not (
Its my first time watching your videos and... you freaking rock! instantly subscribed
Wow! Thank you soooo much!
great review! definitely helped out on deciding which gimbal.
Nice!!!!
Great stuff man, I really enjoy your videos. You are a master of the cut
Thanks so much man!!!
Excellent review!! Thanks for the info and personality, very helpful
Glad this was helpful!!
Finally a comparison video thats shot well, gives excellent feedback and has a hilarious host! Thank you!!
Thank you very much Panda!
Great video! I'm honestly not seeing a ton of difference in the stabilization. I have the Crane M for my M10 and it does a bang-up job.
Finally! Someone did a really fast break down on what the difference between these models is. Thank you! I also appreciate cereal.
WOOOO!! Cereal FTW!!
Love your vids man! Please keep em coming! More vids with tips on the Sony a6500 please!
Love the approach to your videos man. Funny stuff, with great information. Subbed!
Thanks so much for subbing!!!
LOVE this video.....and love your senseability....made me laugh quite a few times....and thanks for helping me choose which gimbal to get....
Awesome! Glad this was helpful!
Like the editing. Keep out the good job!
This video couldn't be more timely! Thanks bro! Appreciate the hard work. Now to watch. 😏
Oh good! I hope this was helpful!!
Sidney Diongzon pretty much. I thought the v2 and the plus are equal in weight.
Really fun and info-rich video. I've had the v2 for a few years and like it more than ever. I'm using a GH5 with Olympus 12-40mm Pro or 7-14mm Pro. That latter lens is maxing it out for me. Keep in mind because a gimbal has a listed payload of lbs/kgs, that doesn't mean you want to put that much weight onto it. It will NOT perform well when maxed out!
And I haven't found a quick release plate and clamp thin enough to use while getting proper balance, so I mount the camera and lens directly to the gimbal. It's not convenient, but it works! I wish it did Time lapses, though. Best to you!
Great video. Keep up the amazing work. And nice comparison. Maybe I'll buy the Crane V2!
Awesome! You'll love the Crane v2! And thanks for watching!
Thanks to you I finally know, after a couple of years, what my Crane version is LOL! Subscrided!
That Transition At 6:31 got me Haha 🔥
Hey Sidney, another great video. Two questions: First, if we're on a budget and only shoot with a small mirrorless camera, gopro and galaxy s8+, is the Zhiyun M-3 a pretty good option? Second, what is the music you used in this video for your footage montage? Thanks!
Great question! I don’t think the M3 would be strong enough to hold a mirror less camera. I would go with at the very least the Crane v2. Ideally, the Crane Plus for your situation. You want strong motors to handle your gear
Dude first video of yours ive ever seen. Instant sub. Glad im here at 78k bro, youll be at a million in NO time. Incredible video, great song selection for b roll, great fonts. Checked all the boxes for cinematic tutorials man. That intro, short,sweet, and straight to the point. Seriously, keep up the great work man. Getting the crane plus after seeing this!
Thank you so much for subscribing! Means a lot to me!
Great video. You helped my decide on v2. Appreciate it!!
Love seeing the Crane Plus shots in my hometown!
Great Video. Been waiting for this comparison.
I’m glad this was helpful!
Great and clear review!!! So i have a Canon 77d with 50mm lens and a rhode micro mic and might use canon 10-18 lens. Will the Plus work well?!
Thank you for making this so funny as well as informative!!
Glad this was helpful...and funny!
You make damn good videos man. Have the V2 and love it
Thanks so much Dave!! Yeah the v2 is awesome!
04:17 😂😂😂 I love this guy I swear...
I have the a6300 with a 18-105 OSS, what do you recommend?
Videos on point🔥🤙 keep up the good work
Thanks so much!!!!
Amazing video as always! Finally order tripod for my V2 on AliExpress
So awesome! You’ll love it!
You are funny and great info.Thanks for taking time to do the video!
Thanks so much for watching!!
Three year old video, still fresh and stylish! Great review!
This was very helpful! Thank you so much!!
Glad this was helpful!!
I want a cheaper, lighter stabilizer. Do you have any better recommendations?
Brilliant video, this helped, thank you!
First off, I love your music.
Second, I love your comical personality, 'You know what, Cereal is good' hahaha. You're so much fun.
Third, this review rocks, thanks so much
THANK YOU NINA!!! Glad this was helpful!
Interesting to learn about the different models. I’m in the market for a gimbal and the V2 sound good enough to start for my Panasonic Lumix GX9 and or iPhone SE 2020. I’m not looking to use my Nikon DSLR’s, but maybe my lighter gear?
I am using a Sony AX 100.. which would be the best choice for that?
This video was really helpful, thanks.
Glad this was helpful!!
Wanna load up my Sony a6500 with the 18-105mm lens, but don't want a heavy stabilizer. What is the best option? Thx
Thanks man, just picked me up a crane V2!
Wooo-hoooo!
Sorry ,couldnt understand which one is better for who?
Do you think the Zhiyun Crane v2 would do well with a Sony a6100 and Sigma 16mm f1.4 lens? Thank you!
I am looking for the best gymbal for my canon and then suddenly I realize I want cake because of you🤣. You are the best! This is the first time I saw your channel because of this video.
3:34 sold it... tracking well from left to right, as in War Stabilizer an these shots will def look like cinema camera movements.
So Would you recommend a Moza Air Gimbal or a Crane V@ for a Canon 60D? Basic setup (18-135mm lens or 50mm lens) Ive never used a gimbal before. I have someone selling a Moza for $400 and the V2 for $250.
One of the best video on RUclips!
YESSSSS!!! Thanks for watching!!
YOU are THE best! as ALWAYS super duper review!
Thank you sooooo much for watching!!
Love your production style!
Thanks so much Lee!
I really enjoyed this video
this is the ive looking for planning to get a gimbal
Loved the slick B Roll starting @ 3:24 !
Nice music for the montage. Thanks for the info. I'm about to grab a Crane V2 today because of your info. (Crane 2 too bulky!)
Woo-hoo! What about the Crane Plus? It’s the same size as the Crane v2 and carries a heavy payload
The v2 was cheaper haha. Was initially looking at the Crane M but as most people say its very limited due to max payload allowance. The v2 here was only like 60$ more.
Oh and also grabbed one of the remotes. I'll be using the crane remotely 50% of the time since I'm a one-man production and will use the remote as my cameraman. Thanks again!
Oh cool!!!! Have fun with it!
Thank you for an informative and entertaining video!
Thank YOU for watching!!
Great video man Nice Comparison ! keep it up
Thanks so much!!! And thanks for watching!
Hey, thanks man. Subscribed and liked. I have a simple question. Can i do vortex with the v2? Thanks!
Awesome video, really appreciate the comparison! I want to up my video game and am considering the Crane Plus, since Im still pretty novice but my new gear setup will be too heavy for the v2. Thanks again!
Glad this was helpful!
I got the Crane 2 and it's super heavy. I think I may change ir for the V2 as it may be enough for my a6300. Should've checked this video before (duh)
Or maybe try the Crane Plus? It’s just as light, but twice as powerful!
I'll definately do that! Love your videos, you are so joyful and helpful 😊😊😊
Is there any other difference between V2 and Plus (aside from the payload)? The Plus is (+200€) in Europe and the V2 is enough for my setup :(
Thank you for this helpfull comparison!
Hey Sidney, thnx for the great video. It was pretty useful. Please tell Zhiyun to send you a check with your commision for making me buy a Crane Plus gimbal as soon as my credit card stops smoking. Greetings from Cologne, Germany!! Btw, are you coming for Photokina this year? ;-)
Hahaha! I would LOVE to go to Photokina one day!!! Hopefully soon!!
Hey man, awesome video as always! I need some advice here. Hopefully you can help me out. I have a Canon 80D w/ Canon lenses 24mm 2.8 STM pancake + 18-135mm STM. I usually make wedding videos and music stuff and for photography also wedding and children parties. I wanna step up my gear and make content with more quality. So... here is the question: Should I get a gimbal? Should I upgrade my lens? Or should I buy another body, maybe a full frame?
Thanks so much! I would definitely upgrade your lens/camera body first. Maybe consider going full frame like the 6Dmk2? Gimbals are great, but not always necessary.
Great review ! 👊🏻
Thank you!
So my one question is, for the Crane 2, if you buy the follow focus thing for it will that track a selected item?
Excellent work in this! I am wondering though, just got the Crane 2 an want to know if you can use the tracking feature with it?
Great video. You just helped me decide on which one to get. You even made me laugh a few times. I hope you found some good cake 😋
Hey man .... have i told you 😅 how much i love watching your informative fun video so thanks again for sharing such great stuff with all of us 😀👍
I love these encouraging messages! Thanks so much for watching!
And thanks againg for sharing 👍👐
Thanks for watching!
cool vid man. subbed
Thanks for the sub Jason!
Okay someone please help me i really want to get a crane 2 and i've been saving up for months.... but i am confused if you can use it with the canon m50 or not. Or possibly the canon rebel t6i? is the m50 too light? and does the auto focus work and all the other features? I need help some please reply. thank you
Awesome comparisson and nice music!
Heading to test a v2 for my canon 6d Mark 2.Wanna up my B-roll videos from Russia.Hope I will be convinced to get one.Thanks a lot mate and happy new year from Russia-Moscow 👌
Thanks for the comparison! Do you know if any of the new Plus features (Object Tracking, POV mode, Nightlapse, etc) have been added to the V2 via a firmware update?
(Saw some people talking about it, but can’t find a definite answer). Great video! :)
No, it’s definitely not on the v2. It’s in the Crane 2 however!
LOL. You are hilarious man... I know this is from Feb but great video... I am behind... look forward to catching up. Have you ever thought about creating or hosting a regular get together for more experienced and new creators in the Dallas area?
Thanks! I definitely plan on doing that one day!
So... object tracking only available on the plus version right?
Sweet quick video! Quick question tho, how do you travel with the dual handle for the Crane2? Is there a slot to store it in the soft case? or do you just have to carry it around?
Hey great video! I was wondering if you knew anything about the Crane 2 having the features that the Crane Plus has?? (Particularly the POV mode and the Nightlapse mode) because the crane 2 looks like the better option for myself as it's able to hold a heavyer payload ect (I'm a Canon user and my main cameras are the 5D Mark IV and the 1D X Mark II). But those features on the Crane Plus are awesome and It'd be great if they are on the Crane 2! So are they? is there a way to recreate them if they aren't?
POV mode is on the Crane 2. Not sure about Nightlapse mode though. Thanks for watching man!
I only have my phone for now but will upgrade to a lager camera in a few months. Can I attach my phone to any of these instead purchasing the smaller crane m2
Mental health video plus great/concise/organized "data". Any chance of future Fuji X control on any of the Cranes ?
Not sure about the Fuji cameras. I would assume not yet
I love your reviews!! Mega nice!! 😄💪🏼
Thanks so much Daniel!
hi what is the tool you used to connect monitor to the top of the camera??? thanx
So i should go for the v2 with my small dslr Canon SL2/200D then right?
My setup with the cam, røde stereo mic and canon 10-18 wide angle lens weighs 900g/1.9pounds.
Got no interest of getting a bigger cam in a few years =)
Never had a gimbal before...
Found a few used for around 410-430$
Love the video, keep up the good work
That might be pushing it for the v2. I would go for the Crane Plus.
For a first time gimbal owner and a future user of the a6500 and the 77d as my shooters which gimbal would you say is best? That focus dial is pretty cool
I'd go with the Crane Plus. Best bang for you buck!
